[Question - Designer] Top of the text to sit on a path

[IceCube]

Hi there!

I googled a bit but i couldn't find a proper answer... Is there a way to make the top of the text to fit on a path?

Here i found a tutorial for mine same problem but it's for Illustrator -> https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/19589/make-top-of-type-sit-on-path-illustrator

Thanks for the support!

Hi IceCube,

Welcome to Affinity Forums

Draw the shape of path you want with the Shapes or Pen Tool, change to the Artistic Text Tool, place the cursor over the path or shape until it changes to a "T" with a small wave below then click and start typing. You can also select the path or shape then go to menu Layer ▸ Convert to Text Path then start typing. Note this feature is only available in Affinity Designer.
